Ok, so I currently have a Flyin Miata Dual Exhaust for my 99. It looks like I need to just sell it and buy something else, since the NB stock is 2.25" And the MSM is 2.5"... However, it has been suggested to me to put in a reducer and run it on the MSM exhaust... That it would make slightly more torque.

Now correct me if I am wrong, but wouldn't that just increase the EGT's to dangerously high levels and then burn out the muffler at the least?

*Update*
This was a;; based on BAD info I was given. The MSM and the 99 have the exact same size exhaust.

Ryu LIVES!!!!!!

Well, Sort of. On the first start up video, I had forgotten to put in the Oil Sending unit... So it ejaculated oil all over the garage. Also, the fuel pressure had not built up yet, which lead to a VERY rough start.


On this second attempt it fired up and ran better.... Still like **** though. My TPS is not reading in the MS2. I think I have a bad solder joint, but I am not sure yet. Also it is just dumping raw fuel out of the exhaust, so much that a cylinder is also being flooded out. So tomorrow, I will try and track down what all is wrong. However, IT RUNS!!!! And it did not explode!

I got to drive it today! First time since March 27th. It runs like crap, but it runs and it stay running! 1-4k no power. 4-5k It tries to drown itself in fuel, 5-7k.... HOLY ****!!!! There's the kick in the pants I was hoping for!

Now to find my exhaust leak, fix the slave cylinder and start working on the tune.

Finally!! All my ECU issues are sorted out! Now to focus on getting it tuned properly!
I think tonight I will build the IC mounts so I can start putting the body back together.
